|
Never again, isn't that what you said? |
|
You've been through this before |
|
An' you swore this time you'd think with your head |
|
No one, would ever have you again |
|
And if takin' was gonna get done |
|
You'd decide where and when |
|
Just when you think you got it down |
|
Your heart securely tied and bound |
|
They whisper, promises in the dark |
|
Armed and ready, you fought love battles in the night |
|
But too many opponents made you weary of the fight |
|
Blinded by passion, you foolishly let someone in |
|
All the warnings went off in your head |
|
Still you had to give in |
|
Just when you think you got it down |
|
Resistance nowhere to be found |
|
They whisper, promises in the dark |
|
But promises, you know what they're for |
|
It sounds so convincing, but you heard it before |
|
Cause talk is cheap and you gotta be sure |
|
And so you put up your guard |
|
And you try to be hard |
|
But your heart says try again |
|
You desperately search for a way to conquer the fear |
|
No line of attack has been planned to fight back the tears |
|
Where brave and restless dreams are both won and lost |
|
On the edge is where it seems it's well worth the cost |
|
Just when you think you got it down |
|
Your heart in pieces on the ground |
|
They whisper, promises in the -- dark |
